[000:00:00;00] with ah, moscow head spike the you impose the price cap on russia natural gas supplies. that's what the me puts in orders his government to set his own enterprise with the u. s. approved almost $2000000000.00 of additional military ukraine, including the 1st shipment of the patriot missile system. 70 years after the melbourne rebellion canyons are called on the british government to compensate the locals for the crimes committed by the military. our parents greatly suffered some died in the process of that brutal colonization in our country. the leadership we
5:01 am
have now should emphasize the importance of compensation to the mouth. with the latest batch of, with the files reveal us intelligence services, push twitter 2 cents, a post containing empty antique crane narrative, with thank you for joining us for the weekly here on, on the international. my name is peter scott to bring you some of the top stories from the week just on thanks for joining us. moscow has responded to the western imposed price cap on russian natural gas supplies, saying it will set its own energy prices. earlier this week, president putin warned the you of the consequences of not abided by bushes, energy policies. yes. in england, in general, you know, sometimes our colleagues and partner surprise me with their unprofessional decisions. after all, at one time it was the european commission that imposed on us the transition to so
5:02 am
called market pricing for gas. and we persuaded them, i personally did this, we persuaded them in brussels, not to do this. they said that the gas market does not work this way. it will, it will lead to serious consequences to a search and prices that this happened right now. and now they don't know how to get out of this position and are trying to regulate gas prices as well, which is accused the u. s. and the u. of attempting to manipulate the international energy market. this comes after the you impose the price cut on russian energy in an attempt to undermine moscow's war chest. now, new russian legislation frees up the states major gas exporters from fulfilling foreign contracts. if they violate national guidelines, the details of moscow's revised policy will be finalized by the end of next week. when we, while present boots in criticized the u. s saying that washington has long been trying to destabilize post soviet states and is now exerting his influence over ukraine. ortiz, where we, sushi and donnell call to discuss the rush. only doesn't stock assessment with
5:03 am
wishes causally moisture. we now say the u. s. is directly involved in the conflict . the u. s. has been dealing with this for a long time. it's been involved in trying to undermine us and influence ukraine since soviet times. our opponents have always tried to divide us and then tried to manage the separate parts. nothing new here while the russian president of course, spoke a lot about how the a west was trying to stoke the flames of nationalism and ukraine long before the soviet union even collapsed. but the russian president also spoke a lot about the russian economy. of course, he said that it's fair a lot better than many people in the west had predicted back in march in february of this year despite predictions that russian g d p would fall by double digits. it's only actually fallen by 2.5 percent. and on top of that, indicators connected to unemployment and inflation had been kept very low as well. so lucas, if you go limited, that's for the economy, despite the predicted collapse, devastation and catastrophe,
5:04 am
none of the kind has happened here. moreover, rushes indicators are much better than many g, 20 countries. a quite a lot was said about russia's defense industry, wasn't it? right. and it was also discussed alongside one question that another journalist asked regarding the possibility of the u. s. supplying the key of regime with patriot missile systems. this is something that vladimir putin said, ok, let the west do that. because the patriot missile systems already outdated and it would take such a long amount of time for american troops or whoever to train ukrainian troops on how to use that. but in terms of the weapons stockpiles like you were talking about before vladimir putin said, there is a huge difference between the ukrainian defense industry and the russian one. because while key halves soviet, basically, mainly soviet and weapons stockpiles, they're actually already on the brink of running out while moscow has plans to actually increase its own stockpiles in the near future. we just know we elizabeth in january rush, we'll have
5:05 am
a new frigate in combat service with new weapons systems. we're not being provocative, but this will strengthen our strategic forces. despite these being medium range systems, their speed characteristics give us an advantage. as for the patriot systems, they are old and do not work in the same way as our as 3 hundreds. but nevertheless, those who oppose us consider the patriots as defensive weapons. well, okay, we'll just keep that in mind. and there will always be an antidote. those who do this are only prolonging the conflict. our goal is not to prolong the military conflict, but on the contrary to end this, we strive for this and we will continue to strive for this process of the tyranny. now that was another very important moment. we just heard their putin emphasizing once again that russia wants to see an end to this war. this is something we've heard reiterated by russian officials for a long time. now they say that the west is to blame for this conflict being drawn out because it's given
5:06 am
a blank check when it comes to weapons and munitions to the key of regime. putin also said that this policy basically directed directly contradicts what the russian government wants for both sides to sit down at the negotiating table and find a diplomatic solution. well, this year, russia's g, d p declined less than for dates at, in spite of increased western sanctions. earlier we heard from independent journalist the green bay, he says use economy is the one feeling, the bronze from the sanctions on russia. gus, one we were told by the germans, by the french, by our leaders in the west and our sanctions were necessary to bring the car of russia to we sneezed. but we are all armies. energy wise, it is, the situation is double. we have mine a stand last week for us. it's a terrible winter, i mean he rushes minus than his mind frequent. but here people start to realize that we had a huge problem of energy. no, sure, no guess, no, no one, no,
5:07 am
no solutions for oil are within month own in long term solutions, not before years from now. our economy in tatters everywhere. i mean factories closing. the cost of life is increasing. we have for 10 percent, 12 percent inflation. we can't get energy, this is terrible and they don't have an answer. also, our economy encounters and rushes seems to do well to stay with the conflicts or ukrainian presidential adviser has called for the targeting of iranian weapons. fighters over the country is a legit arms applies to russia. iran plan and seduce mesa drawn supplies for russia, blood and lee cumulative dissertation of international sanctions. important to abandon none to walk in sanctions invalid to young resolutions concept and move to more destructive tools. liquidation of plants arrest up supplies washer
5:08 am
and iran denied all allegations with moscow saying the ukrainian side doesn't presented any evidence that his military has been using or a new supplied weapons. key of incidence as it has recovered iranian drones, surrounded amidst applying jones to russia, but stressed that this was before the war. ukraine here says it's after the war. the country also denies selling any missiles to russia. professor of university of terrence said, mohammed mirandi says the key of is seeking to broaden the conflict. it says a lot about the regime and yeah, that not only do they want to create some sort of world war 3 like environment in europe, but they want to the regime once they expand the war to other parts of the world. the iranians have been importing weapons and technology and exporting weapons and their own technological capabilities to russia for
5:09 am
a long time now. and if western country you export to saudi arabia and to this railey regime, the russians and iranians have every right to export their weapons to one another or the regime and to call for a military operations against iran is very dangerous. of course, i don't believe anyone is going to listen to his demand. there's nothing else that these western countries can do with regards to sanction. and a military option would mean a severe retaliation by iran against countries. oil rich and gasoline come countries in the region that host american and basis laquia is pushing for a military response over legendary arm supplies to russia. washington has approved almost $2000000000.00 of more additional military aids ukraine,
5:10 am
which includes the u. s. patriot missile battery. with announcement was made following, you couldn't present the landscape, recent visit to the u. s. is with it was the 1st trip abroad since the start of the war. in an address to congress, he expressed gratitude to the us for weapons already provided on. the more us has been said, he will supply a patriot missile system to give the slum the visits on weapons. a question zaleski was more interested in securing arms than piece labor rights lawyer and also done ca, bolick was the us house prophecy, greatly from the supplies of heavy weapons, few claiming desperately needs more. think that the u. s. is happy to give that money, whether the patriot missiles are used or not. it's also a matter of putting money in the coffers of the defense industry. us criminal institution, i'm forgetting which one, but that they are now sounding the alarm bells that they expect these weapons to end up in the hands of criminal elements by the ministration has no interest in handling. and how do we know this?
5:11 am
we know this because the democrats voted down in a house committee of a republican proposed to audit the weapons that have already been sent to you quite so we know that the u. s. has no interest in being held accountable on any of this fox news and gets a carlson questioned why washington should keep supplying here with tens of billions of dollars in financing and weapons to have a historic debt to ukraine. do have a historic animosity with a non soviet russia. no, no. how do we win here? what's in it for us, isn't this our country? and where do you good talking to us like that? we have yourselves so much to have so little respect for the united states of america that will put up with that that will applaud it. thank you sir. may i have another? what's wrong with us? what's wrong with our leaders? and while us lawmakers approved sending more money on weapons to ukraine, not every one or was so enthusiastic. i'll spoken to republican marjorie taylor green, criticize the landscape, visit as absurd. lay been
5:12 am
a. m a shadow president of the u. s. on his country. the 51st states media analyst align all says it's unfair to make american citizens pay for the government's decisions to keep taxpayer funds pouring into ukraine. we're looking right now in the united states at a $1.00. think about this trillion dollar omnibus bill. american citizens or say 1.7, true trillion for what we're wondering, where are we going to pay for our operation? what it, what is our goal? are you suggesting? does this intimate, that we are involved in a war that we are a participant in this, that, that we are a cold combatant? does? is that what this means? because if it does mean that i don't think a lot of americans were particularly care for that. we never signed on to this.
5:13 am
we're getting to the point right now where people don't really understand it. and frankly, maybe common sense may prevail. because the one issue that nobody is talking about is peace ending it. this is say sion of hostility, that said it is somehow absent and void from the, from the rubric of conversation. maybe i hope we're getting to that point where we say enough, him all most blumenthal the editor of the investigative new site. the grey zone posted on exchange that he had with delegates representing ukrainian, desperate on their way to congress is 45000000000. not enough. not enough. got that. how much? how much more should we give to ukraine instead of our own people? do you, do you do support the as of italian, so you're more of an as of and there's no more as a values where we're train and recruited that into a former professional army over the last 8 years. so the neo nazis were brought
5:14 am
into the army. no, no, no, not see them not, i mean, so no answer about crane is a democracy. why did zalinski ban 13 opposition? partnership law? we did have an us know martial law. sounds undemocratic. why did he band the russian wing of the orthodox church? i still wanted extra to serving as the keys in this organization and with, with, with found, with materials that were legal and financing the enemy. war against innocent people . i oppose the assault on don. yes. do you the shelling of the people have done? yes. do you oppose that? no, no. are you wired? wired civilians been killed and done yet? lugens, if you oppose that there was a small anti war protests on east capitol right at the front of the capitol. and as i was said, of are standing there. i ukrainian diaspora delegations just rolled up, started taking pictures, and i began questioning them. and you saw the exchange right there,
5:15 am
i think it was very revealing. and these are actually significant figures not only in the diaspora but within the ukrainian government itself. i didn't know they were coming. i didn't know who was coming. i just showed up at the capital, i was actually hoping to be the one reporter who actually asked critical questions of our representatives here in the u. s. on why they were going to authorize another $45000000000.00 to continue this dangerous proxy war throughout 2023. and what i found was a completely locked down capital. it looked like the days after january 6, except the offences were lower. there were no members of congress, although i did catch a last senator joe manchin who basically refused to speak to me. senator, do you know how much we've, how many billions we've sent to ukraine? good us a lot more. do you want to send more? oh, absolutely. amazon, all in i'm all, we're all in the statements on sunday. china's foreign minister has said that china, russia, bilateral ties remain unshakable. cities average among with a comp,
5:16 am
the china, russia relationship, which is based on non alliance, non consultation, and non targeting of any 3rd party remains. rock solid. such relationship is free from interference or thing. it's have to solve discord between the 2 countries and is immune from changes in the international environments which are russian. china are said to deepen, sized to move forwards towards a more multi polar world. these remarks came previously this week during a visit from former russian president to meet you media to beijing, where he met with president seizing pink cdn correspondence, sunny as more details. according to a chinese readout. after that meeting between general secretary after cbc central committee and president shooting and the chairman up to russia, united united russia party demetri, mette. yes. the 2 had covered quite some ground in the range of topics. china would provide more opportunities for what peace and prosperity and own relations of the 2
5:17 am
parties. she had said that the long institutionalized context between the 2 parties have become a unique channel and platform for a consolidating mutual political trust between china and russia. and she said he hoped 2 parties will continue in depth exchanges on governing experiences, development strategies in international and multi national corporations. and on the china, russia relations. she had said that in the past 10 years, china, russia relations have was due to changes in the world and have always developed in a healthy and stable manner. she said that china, russia comprehensive, strategic partnership of coordination were a new era is a long term strategic choice make by both sides based on their own respective conditions. and he said that china is, were willing to work with russia to deepen relations, enjoying the promot global governance in the more just and reasonable directions
5:18 am
and on the crisis in ukraine. she had said, as always, that china continue to hold an objective and fair sense. and promote peace talks, he hopes sac relevant parties could be reasonable, restrained, and have comprehensive dialogues and resolve security issues through piece talks was cross live now and discuss this more with nelson. wong, vice chairman of the shanghai center for international students. thank you very much for joining us this sunday nelson. thank you now unshakable, that's what we just heard. the chinese foreign minister some of relations between moscow and beijing. what's your take on that? and who do you think the target audience is for the comments? where i think the, the target audience is, of course, not totally the 2 countries, people of russia and china, but also to the rest of the world, actually shows china's resolve to seek for
5:19 am
a better understanding. was the rest of the world, was this announcement that china believes in peace. child believes that the relation with russia really reflects the core interest, respecting of the core interest of the respective countries. so this is something that i think of friends in other parts of the world need to understand that when it comes to relations between china and russia, our 2 countries do have a lot in common, not only in economic dependencies into dependencies, but also about our view towards the future, about multi polar world. and this is something which is very important. we don't believe in a head you money. we don't believe in bullying other countries it's,
5:20 am
it's about respecting of each other's core interest. this is very important or talking about the future and building on the shaking will foundation. what areas do you think that the future will bilateral ties between russia and, and, and china. how do you think it'll be developed to which area specifically? well, i would personally think that the 2 countries a lot to, to, to, to, to work together. and to further the relationship between now 2 countries, particularly of the economic fraud. because russia does have the need to develop its own different line of industries. and it's, it's a perfect time for russia to start restructuring its economic composition as a whole for which i think china might be able to,
5:21 am
to assist. and china needs to, to buy resources from russia, which is true. no one disputes that but in the meantime, china also needs to, to, to expand further, expand its export, which russian now provides a good market. so in order to get up to speed up the, the relations on the cooperation between the 2 countries, there was a lot of work to be done not only in terms of the interconnectivity, the infrastructure, the logistics part, but also it's the understanding between the 2 people between the business communities it's certainly mutually beneficial relationship there by the sounds of it nelson. and if we can just briefly touch upon us and china relations, washington as authorized up to $10000000000.00 in what it calls security assistance
5:22 am
from taiwan. what kind of response do you think we'll see from beijing? well, the china, us relationship is a going through a very difficult period actually. and following the, the meeting of all to presidents in bali in the past month. but both sides have agreed to that. secretary clinton is going to visit beijing to meet to his chinese foreign minister for sure. and i think there is be a lot of unpleasant exchanges on the diplomatic front. so, but the good thing is both countries have expressed their willingness to manage the differences. and as the chinese government spokes person has set
5:23 am
very correctly, it's not about what the americas say, but what they do actually. so something that i think it's important to point out perception is a kind of a reality when it comes to politics and in international politics. this is, you know, something that people will have to, to face because it's wrong for a lot of our friends in america to expect that the rest of the world would all like to live like the americas. would all like to you know, to, to, to eat american food or to, to practice the american democracy? no, it's not. it's not like this. every country has its own values and traditions and they have the right to choose their own system. so as long as this point is
5:24 am
taken care off, if they realize that this is not the case, that the rest of the world all want to live like the americas, then i think they will be more sensible on the negotiation tables. and we're have to wait and see if that transpires, nelson wong, vice chairman of the shanghai center for international studies. pleasure, as always, to have you on the program. thank you very much for your time today. thank you. ah, on the fights of mama war veterans who stood up against british colonialism in kenya back in the 1950s is far from over. even today, this week they asked the canyon president to demand compensation from the u. k. governments which westminister has pledged several times but so far failed to deliver wave yo, we are calling on the current government's antennae are to ensure they keep on press and the british government so that the mom, all that strengths and their siblings can receive compensation. while in advance,
5:25 am
the british governments agreed and $9059.00 to pay the compensation than pledge to do so again in 2003 and once more in 2007. so the concerned parties should sit down and come up with a conclusion for the veterans. we don't know why it's taken too long for the agreement to be implemented. we are requesting to be paid the full amount from the world bank 3 trillion dollars. in the 1950s, the kenyan people rose up against british colonial rule. in response, the british army confined to some one and a half 1000000 kenyans to detention camps on launched milch operations, torturing and killing thousands of suspects at ma mouse supporters. now it does have to be said here that momma minutes since themselves were also guilty of war crimes. but it was later revealed that the british officials tried to cover up their own crimes with ma, my, to best still trying to seek justice to day. somebody might not ghetto, the psalm that has been capping by the world bank for mo, mo, should be released immediately. some of us are certainly very old. as you can see,
5:26 am
others have died and we're only surviving by the grace of the lord. honestly, really suffered at the hands of the british in kenya. it was for our parents greatly suffered in some died in the process of the brutal colonization in our country. the leadership we have now should emphasize the importance of compensation to the mal mal. some of the remitted veterans couldn't even walk to this meeting. they are very old and seek some of lost memory as a result of the torture you underwent dirty colonial period. so our president should feel for the veterans and pressure you could government the 9th batch of newly released switzer files reveals that u. s. intelligence services aggressively pushed the bluebird to sensi a sensor, any anti ukraine narratives claim in their parts of a so called russian propaganda campaign. the f b i and other security agencies suggested that the accounts which compared the
5:27 am
ukrainian government to the nazis of world war 2 worked rated in russian troll farms. they also alleged that any of the $280.00 kite scripts, which said ukraine is home to multiple violence. no nasty battalions are simply trolls and shall be banned from the platform altogether. the fall show that washington's collective narrative with care could not be cast into doubts and an implication for forward that russia was provoked into conflicts was to investigate that has been given access to the files has questioned the storyline, put forth in tell about the shady origin of these accounts might be true, but so my at least some of the information in them about neo nazis rates, abuses and done bus. even about our own government. should we block such material? this is a difficult speech dilemma. should the government be allowed to try to prevent americans and others from seeing anti ukrainian accounts? according to the expos, a,
5:28 am
the u. s labeled uses as pro russian trolls simply for sharing verified footage and vice sharing. this image of neo nazis carrying 3rd reich and other fascist symbols brought accusations of spreading misinformation while highlighting the torchlight procession. some of those of last century or re posting in 1st nastiest, ukrainian figures responsible for the death of many polish soviets and jewish civilians brought about similar condemnation. even a photo of don bass apartment blocks destroyed by a credit shelling before 2022 would get you sense it. those the new stories, the shape the week here on archie for more any of them to head over to our telegram channel and our website r t dot com. i'd be to scott on the back within a look in around 30 minutes. thanks for watching a ah,
